Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

“Squeaker” McCarthy

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

The willow is too close to the house.

Today’s GOP: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Everybody saw this coming.

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Oliver Willis and I have been chatting this week (contrary to what you may think- we have a lot in common), and Oliver has stated several times that he believes we should keep a keen eye out for revisionism regarding Reagan and his legacy.

With that in mind, Matthew Yglesias has some stunning news for President Dukakis, President Gore, Speaker ofthe House Tom Foley, and Senate Majority Leader Robert Byrd:

“Hatchet Man- So Reagan was the guy who saved conservatism? Actually, he buried it.”

    Dumb headline, but an interesting thesis.

    My take? Too soon to tell.
